Lately...

So I never wrote anything about Halloween! Halloween night Robbie and I went to see the show, "Thriller".  Its amazing dance production that is put on every year in Salt Lake...and when I say its amazing, I mean it is AMAZING!!! It was probably one of the coolest things I have ever seen.  I really wanted to dress up this year because I havent dressed up for Halloween in years!  I had decided what I wanted to be months in advance and was so excited to dress up like Marilyn Monroe! I looked so funny it was great. Robbie of course put his costume together 5 minutes before we had to leave, which consisted of a 40 year old nasty wig he found at his parents house and a Florida Gator's basketball jersey...

Anyway, here are some pictures from that night!

Needless to say it was a good time :)

Also, after 3 months of being married...I finally got around to decorating our apartment.  On Saturday I decided to just pop into Hobby Lobby to see if they had anything to give me some ideas, but I ended up just popping in on the best day of the year! Everything in the store was 50% off! Everything!!! It was definitely my lucky day. I bought a lot of things!! But of course it was justified since it was 50% off..that was my excuse to make Rob not so mad at me.  Not only did i get things for our walls and stuff, but I ended up getting out allllll of the Christmas decorations and putting them up too :)  I decided it didnt matter if people thought it was weird to get them out so early..as long as it made ME happy :)  So I put those up too.  Here are some pictures of the "new" apartment.

its not much, and its hard to tell from the picture, but I put up an antique-ish looking cork board, a antique-ish shelf, as well as some antique-ish frames on top of the shelf! Needless to say I LOVEEEEE antique things.  Oh...and theres the Christmas wreath!

So the glare kind of takes away from the big picture, but I found a wood plaque (antique-ish of course...) that says "Love" and thought it was way cute! I also bought and hung up some candle holders and two really pretty candles! Then underneath is one of our engagement pictures in an..dont make me say it..frame. (by the way...it took me FOREVER to nail those candle holders in the right place on the wall...I am hardwear-ly challenged)

Our apartment is so tiny that this was basically the only place to put decorations! I love the santa and snowman bobble-heads my mom gave me though...so cute! And its like having a bit of Dwight Schrute in our home..which I love!

Since making the apartment was such a special occasion, I decided to get my favorite combo of flowers for it! I absolutely LOVE daisies and roses together..and the colors really fit the style of the apartment as well.  I think that when these die, I will go make myself a boquet of fake ones to replace it :)

This is a TERRIBLE picture of the tree that I put up..but I had to have proof that I actually did it! I couldnt figure out how to rotate it on Robbie's laptop so I guess we just have to deal with it being horizontal. Anyway, it has alllll of the ornaments I grew up with.  My mom gave me all of them as a wedding present and I am so glad she did! Growing up we always had two trees in our house. The "pretty tree" and the "mickey tree".  I am so glad that the tradition of the mickey tree will live on through me! I got very emotional as I decorated it...I couldnt stop crying the entire time. It's my first Christmas being married and away from home and it will definitely take some getting used to. Not only that, but every single one of those decorations has a special memory with it and reminds me of all the Christmases I spent decorating the tree with my mom at home growing up.

I am excited for tomorrow.....I am going to start going to Zumba class! Woooo!

ok....bye!
